Introduction of SIMULIA Manatee Software for Magnetic Noise & Vibration Control of Electrical Systems | EuroMed Conference | RUM 2024

We were very glad to be able to introduce to you during our EuroMed SIMULIA Conference 2024 on June 11–12, 2024 at the Politecnico di Milano in Milan, Italy, one of the latest additions to our SIMULIA family. 
@JB held there the presentation titled "Introduction of SIMULIA Manatee Software for Magnetic Noise & Vibration Control of Electrical Systems".

Abstract:

Acoustic noise and vibrations due to electromagnetic forces due induced by electric machine operation (called e-NVH in automotive applications) can be significant in many applications such as transportation & mobility, industrial equipment, aerospace & defense, marine & offshore, etc. Tackling noise issues after manufacturing can be particularly expensive and may degrade electric drive performances such as efficiency, cooling, and weight. Therefore, an efficient virtual prototyping workflow of e-NVH is key to accelerating development times, reducing prototyping manufacturing & testing costs, and improving engineering productivity. 
Manatee software is a CAE collaborative environment designed to support all engineers involved in the development of electrified systems to assess and control magnetic noise and vibration levels at all design stages, from the basic electric motor design stage to the system-level detailed design stage. Manatee can be run as a standalone multiphysic software with flexible modelling options for electrical, magnetic, structural dynamics & acoustics. It also comes with high interoperability, allowing flux import from CST/Opera and modal basis import from Abaqus. It comes with predefined simulation workflows and specialized magnetic noise mitigation techniques (e.g. skewing, notching, harmonic current injection) which makes it complementary to general-purpose software solutions of Simulia portfolio. Manatee facilitates collaboration between engineers (electrical, control, mechanical, and NVH engineers) while standardizing the interfaces between electric machine designers and integrators.


About the Speaker:

Jean Le Besnerais completed an industrial PhD thesis in Electrical Engineering in 2008 on electromagnetic noise and vibrations (e-NVH) in traction induction machines with Alstom. After working in the railway and wind energy sectors, Jean founded EOMYS Engineering in 2013, a company offering software and consulting services specialized in solving e-NVH problems in electrical machines and drives. EOMYS was acquired by Dassault Systèmes in 2024. 
Since 2024, Jean leads, as a SIMULIA R&D Technology Director, the development of Manatee software, the only CAE collaborative environment dedicated to assessing and controlling magnetic noise & vibrations at all design stages of electrical systems.
